Having problems with this sprite file

Had to restore it from a backup and don't seem to be able to add it to the project - well I can add it back in, it just comes up as a blank sprite file.

If I look at it with a hex editor it contains all the data, all the gubbins at the beginning is probably confusing it, or me :shock:

Any ideas as to how I can get my font back ? Or am I going to have to re-do it for the 3rd time ..... gggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Cheers Steve,

I think I've found a bug.

I *think* the file stores 64 (0-63) sprites ... I've just created a blank file to compare file formats.

Try to load it back in and ...blank sprite file.

I've also tried creating a new project and adding the font.bin file to the project from many backups (about 8, over a period of about 6 hours) - all just show in swift as a blank file, even though the sprite data is there. :(

The other file containing sprite graphics is fine, it's just this one.

Just realised that this is the same problem JoolsH has here.

Error is ;-

"This does not appear to be valid spite data" in the sprite editor window.

"Sprite Corruption, Sprite 0 does not end at the start of the next sprite"
